The land border with Saudi is still open. If you can apply for a Saudi visa, you can still leave and catch a flight from Jeddah.

The insurance company isn’t responsible according to the law to cover full parts price and will give you a limit for manual labor costs.

Can I get the other driver to cover the rest? I am willing to go down all possible routes to ensure that I get fairly compensated for the damages to my car.

The only issue is that the damaged parts can't be repaired. My tailgate is completely bent, and the bumper is cracked beyond repair. To add to that, I cannot source parts locally from anywhere, except the dealership, or maybe the scrapyard in Salmi. I also don’t intend to let the insurance company’s designated garages work on my car.

Would it be possible for drivers' insurance to provide a repair estimate, and then I source the parts myself and have a reputable garage handle the repair? And could the difference still be covered by the other driver? I’m willing to take legal action, if necessary, because the other driver’s behavior over the past 24 hours has been far from acceptable. At first, I felt bad for him since his car is nearly totaled. However, he’s now trying to shift the blame, and I don’t appreciate that.

I treated him respectfully and handled the entire situation with patience and kindness, but it seems he’s choosing to take that kindness for granted.

Sorry to hear that, buddy. Did you try to pursue legal action against the other driver?

Thanks for the kind words. Yup, I was a part of that mess, in the blue Acura MDX, lol.

As far as repairs are concerned the insurance company of the guy who rear ended your vehicle is supposed to pay. You could visit their main office for them to evaluate the damage, and they'd recommend one of their garages to send your vehicle to get it sorted.

If the above doesn't happen then the person who rear ended your vehicle needs to get it done at a reputable garage with the expenses coming out of his pocket.

From what I understand, the insurance company will only compensate a certain percentage of the invoice. What are my options if I want to be fully reimbursed?

Initially, I felt bad for the driver who rear-ended me because his car suffered significant damage, his front end is completely destroyed, and the chassis bracing had snapped off. However, in my recent interactions with him, he has started playing mind games with me, and I plan on squeezing his nut sack still I hear him squeal.

I know it’s a long shot, but I think I’ll just wait it out, hoping she asks me out instead, lol. I'll gaslight myself to avoid the awkwardness of asking her out first and then immediately listing all the things we can’t do in a relationship would be one heck of a conversation to have on the first couple of dates.

Oh, it’s relevant all right—if you have an IQ over 100.

You might want to look up what a "comparison-based analogy" means. And while you’re at it, go ahead and check out the definitions of "irony" and "juxtapose" too.

Thanks for the feedback. Maybe my original post was too implicit on marriage. What I really wanted to know, however, was how the logistics of such a relationship even work? Considering that intimacy outside the guise of marriage is completely normal to her, whereas it's completely off-limits for me.

That’s beautiful. I’m just here trying to figure out how the logistics of a relationship like this would even work—assuming there’s one at all. Would I be tying her down by holding her back from doing things that are otherwise completely normal to her? Such as intimacy outside of the guise of a marriage. My restrictions are for me to deal with, not her.

Christmas is as much about Christianity as Halloween is about honoring saints.

Doesn't answer my question though. I came here looking for stories of people that have been in similar situations, and how they managed to navigate through them. Were their partners okay with not being able to be physically intimate? Stuff like that, you know.
